Guide: Bowcraft Skill Guide

Bowcraft and Fletching is the skill that is useful to know if you are going to be an Archer. They go hand in hand because this skill is what you need to know in order to make bolts, arrows, bows, crossbows, and heavy crossbows. Ideally you should put this skill on your crafter character.

SKILL TRAINING

It’s very easy to reach GM with this skill, it just takes a while. Make sure you have tons of boards (100k to GM) and have a lot of empty bags available and at least 20 fletching tools because they do break often.

Be sure to have an empty bag or container in your backpack that you can put as many boards as you can carry. When you double-click your fletching tool and select the item you want to make it will automatically be created inside that bag. This is useful for when you get too heavy and just want to empty out you backpack, because you can throw full bag away:

ADDITIONAL ITEMS

Here is another list of all of the things you can make while you are training. Making bows is a good idea if you want to try and get back some of the gold you spent on wood, but if you want to just see how many different things you can make this will tell you what you need to make them, and other useful info such as if it will keep the color of the wood used, if you can put a makers mark on it, what skill you need to make if and whether or not you need a recipe.
